SMTP Mail Server
Most of the time, the DNS server configuration explained in
the DNS Server section will allow you to use the e-mail-to-
FAX relay service.
The DNS server configuration is not always used.
Some mail servers are configured to process all mail
addressed to hosts belonging to their domain as mail to
themselves. If mail server mail.abc.com has been set up in
this way, it will regard mail to [email protected] as mail to
one of its users and will not forward it to your fax machine.
To prevent this, configure the mail server so it does not
process mail addressed to host fax.abc.com.
The example assumes that
·
The OS of mail.abc.com is FreeBSD.
·
The mail server is sendmail.
·
Configuration file sendmail.cf is generated using
utility “CF.”
You will have to edit sendmail.cf directly if
no utility of this kind is available. The procedure
for this operation is very complicated. It will not be
explained here.
To configure the mail server, you will
1
insert strings into sendmail.def
2
add strings specifying email-to-FAX relay
3
create a new sendmail.cf
4
overwrite the original sendmail.cf
5
restart the mail server
